I'm reasonably sure China also spys to steal technical secrets but also who cares intelectual property is made up

America and China spying on each other for technical secrets isn't a big deal when either of them does it. Frankly that's the kind of thing I think a government should be doing

I bloody hope the US is spying on China. The Chinese government is cancer.

There's a reason immigration only flows in one direction.

[–] [email protected] 29 points 1 year ago (1 children)

yea i too wonder why people from lower income countries try to come to higher income countries. could it be because of colonialism and imperialism? nah they just hate the Government.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (5 children)

Because China is a shithole and America is the land of opportunity. The smart ones hate the government.

Fascists malding hard that a leftist nation is successful and beating them at everything

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

China is not leftist. China is a fascist dictatorship. Bout communist. Hahahahaha

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Successful? Where? How's that housing market, bud? Healthcare? Child mortality rate? Freedom of expression? When was the last time China contributed to the arts, music? If you measure success in the amount of coal you can burn in a week, sure, success. In the mean time, try not to choke.

Based on the most up to date information I could find, infant mortality in China is 5.47 per 1000 compared to 5.44 in the US. Comparing the countries by wealth per capita, I don't see how you could possibly think this is a dunk, though obviously Cuba is much better than both.

https://worldpopulationreview.com/country-rankings/infant-mortality-rate-by-country

I should mention that the distortion in US data is true, but the vast majority of infant deaths take place in the weeks after birth, so it's a much smaller distortion than it appears on paper. I have not yet found what China's window is.

I found 8.397/1000 and I'm sure that doesn't include uyghurs and any poor people the party doesn't decide to count. My country(not the US) is less than 4 so this isn't a flex.

By the way, this study uses the US definition, so you can use that for comparisons:

You actually believe the US is the land of opportunity? susie-laugh

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Nobody's asking you to move to America.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 1 year ago

Thank christ, I'd consider that an actual attempt at harming me

[–] [email protected] 16 points 1 year ago (1 children)

You know, it's not entirely your fault you're such an idealist. You're wrong and you're very funny because of it, but it's not all your fault

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Are you all party members in here or is there an actual Chinese person among you? Because all I can see are a bunch of loyalists.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 year ago
[–] [email protected] 21 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Because Americans are stupid.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (4 children)

Nah, pretty sure it's because China is a shithole. Chinese people don't care about each other. The Chinese government can't even feed its people without help from the west. What a sad sad country, so beautiful, such wonderful history, and one communist experiment wiped it all away.

[–] [email protected] 19 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Have you ever been to China lmao

[–] [email protected] 13 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

So you came away from your visit to a modern country of over a billion people with a booming economy and brand new infrastructure and your takeaway was “these people don’t care about each other” and “they don’t have any food” despite the massive trade surplus and conspicuous lack of homelessness?

You are either a liar or a racist

Edit: well maybe a liar but definitely a racist

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I saw lipstick on a pig.  I saw air you couldn't breathe.  I saw the markets selling spoiled meat.  I saw a girl who had her legs chopped off by her father.  I met a father, who had his baby ripped out of his wife and his wife killed, and then he was paralyzed by officials for daring to complain. Yeah, it's a shit hole. Keep telling yourself that it's great it's not.

[–] [email protected] 17 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

I saw water you couldn't drink. I saw pharmaceuticals selling tainted product to vulnerable populations. I saw school children butchered as the police stood idly by listening to them scream and beg for help. I saw little girls forced to carry their abuser's baby to term while officials gleefully laughed. Keep telling yourself it's the greatest nation on earth, it's not.

Oh right. Only the shittiest movies are allowed to play in China. Can't have you thinking.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

I didn't realize you were allowed to watch fast and furious in china. I'm surprised it made the approved list.
